Wolfscote dale 4th june (duffers fortnight nearly)

Fished wolfscote dale this afternoon and it
turned out quite a good afternoon with the
fish taking mayfly for part of the day.
this part of the dove is stuffed with fish of
all sizes from 2 inch fingerlings to decent
trout of over a pound not all of them are
stock fish but quite a mixture.

when you fish here it is usefull to have a long
handled net as there is no wading and some
of the banks are quite high.

i fished with mick (brother) and john smith
who also caught quite a few.mick had the most
but john missed alot as well with myself catching
about a dozen.The best fly for myself was the
yellow drake in the afternoon but by the evening
it became harder with most fly's being ignored
john and mick had a good spell on balloon caddis
the best fly for myself after the switch from mayfly
was a yellow para dun.

This really is a marvelous place and is fishing
very well at the moment.The picture of myself
above chilling out is a reminder that it is
sometimes good to take time out and enjoy
the surrounding's.Duffers fortnight as not
arrived but it is very close.
